how often we
block the future
by scrambling to
pick up all of the stolen
seconds that we gave
to people we want only
to forget

and you can't
rewrite your own
string of moments
no matter how much

i made a promise
i'd write for you
but words have been creeping inside
afraid to show and help me try

and i tried for you
so i made a promise
i'd try for myself
but i failed in that too
